During his hiatus from hosting television, Conan O’Brien will be hitting the road on with the “Legally Prohibited From Being Funny On Television Tour.” The tour will stop in 30 cities, starting in April on the West Coast, hitting New York in early June and continuing on to Bonnaroo before wrapping up in Atlanta on June 14th.

What will this tour consist of? The tour website promises a “night full of music, comedy, hugging, and the occasional awkward silence.” Interesting that music is listed before comedy, reminding us of Conan’s stellar performance on the last episode of the Tonight Show where he played “Freebird.”
Conan will not be banking any money from this tour. His reason for doing it is to keep his writers and staffers employed. “What a guy,” is all I can say.
